Simultaneous Blind Demixing and Super-resolution via Vectorized Hankel Lift

Haifeng Wang, Jinchi Chen, Hulei Fan, Yuxiang Zhao, Li Yu

TL;DR

This work tackles simultaneous blind demixing and super-resolution under a subspace model by reformulating the problem as a structured low-rank matrix demixing task. It introduces MVHL, a convex program based on vectorized Hankel lifting and nuclear-norm minimization, to jointly demix and super-resolve multiple signal components from linear measurements. The authors prove exact recovery under standard incoherence assumptions when $n \gtrsim K \mu_0 \mu_1 s r \log(sn)$, using a dual certificate constructed via a golfing scheme. Empirical results show MVHL outperforms ANM in phase transitions, exhibits robustness to noise, and enables accurate joint radar-communications parameter estimation when combined with MUSIC.

Abstract

In this work, we investigate the problem of simultaneous blind demixing and super-resolution. Leveraging the subspace assumption regarding unknown point spread functions, this problem can be reformulated as a low-rank matrix demixing problem. We propose a convex recovery approach that utilizes the low-rank structure of each vectorized Hankel matrix associated with the target matrix. Our analysis reveals that for achieving exact recovery, the number of samples needs to satisfy the condition $n\gtrsim Ksr \log (sn)$. Empirical evaluations demonstrate the recovery capabilities and the computational efficiency of the convex method.
